25. Just to remind ourselves when Nancy Pelosi's name inevitably comes up....

From Google:

"The President of the United States has the sole authority to call out the National Guard in Washington D.C., as the D.C. National Guard's chain of command reports directly to the President, not a state governor. The President can also delegate this authority to the Secretary of Defense. This is a unique arrangement because, unlike state National Guards which report to their respective governors, the D.C. Guard operates under the President's direct command.".

So shut your trap, drumphf, and anyone else. 😬😑
